HISTORY

Longwood C ollege, a pioneer, first in private, and later in public education, is one of the oldest colleges for women in the United States. The College was founded on March 5, 1839, this being the date that the Farmville Female Seminary Association was incorporated by the General Assembly of Virginia. The seminary opened its doors in an impressive brick building in the Georgian style of architecture, which now forms a part of Ruffner Hall, the administration building at Longwood College. Prior to 1839 there existed the Farmville Female Seminary established in 1833 and another female seminary established in 1835 by the Re v erend A. J. Heustis. It is possible that the seminary of 1839 was an outgrowth of these earlier schools. If this is the case, Longwood College can justifiably claim a founding date of 1833. ·

In succeeding years the increasing prosperity of the Farmville Female Seminary or Female Academy, as it was sometimes called, led the stockholders to expand the seminary into a college, and the Farmville Female College was incorporated in 1860. This college under both private and church management enjoyed a long period of successful operation. Between 1860 and 1884 it was directed in turn by George La Monte, a young graduate of Union College, New York; Arnaud Preot, a distinguished French musician and linguist; Dr. Paul Whitehead, a Methodist minister; and the Misses Fannie and Mary Elizabeth Carter of Mecklenburg County.

The first State legislature to assemble after the adoption of the postbellum constitution established a system of public schools in Virginia on July 11, 1870. For twelve years or more the conduct of these schools was entrusted to such teaching forces as were found ready at hand. Howev er, during this period it became evident to educational leaders that some provision must be made for the training of teachers. To meet this demand, the legislature on March 7, 1884, passed an act establishing a State Female Normal School. On April 7, 1884, the State of Virginia acquired the property of the Farmville Female College, and in October of the same year the Normal School opened with 110 students enrolled. This was the first State institution of higher learning for women in Virginia.

16 BULLETIN OF

With the passage of the years, the Normal School expanded its curricula and ran through a succession of names. It became the State Normal School for Women in 1914, the State Teachers College at Farmville in 1924, and Longwood College in 1949.

The College's present name was derived from Longwood Estate, a tract of 103 acres acquired by the institution in 1928. This beautiful property, originally· consisting of thousands of acres, was p urchased by Peter Johnston in 1765, and was the home of Peter Johnston, Jr., a lieutenant in Light Horse Harry Lee's famed legion and judge of the Circuit Court of Virg inia . There , also, was born General Joseph E. Johnston, Confederate military figure .

In 1811 the estate was bought by Abram Bedford Venable, a United States Senator and the organizer and first president of the first bank in Virginia. After the destruction by fire of the original house on the estate, the present house was erected in 1815 by Nathaniel E. Venable, an officer in the War of 1812 and a member of the Virginia House of Delegates and the Senate. It is the birthplace of Lieutenant Colonel Charles Scott Venable, who was a member of General Robert E. Lee's staff, and professor of mathematics and chairman of the faculty of the University of Virginia

The College was first authorized to offer four-year curricula leading to the degree ·of bachelor of science in education in 1916. It was authorized to offer the degree of bachelor of arts in 1935, the degree of bachelor of science in 1938, curricula in business education the same year, and courses leading to a degree in music education in 1949. In 1954, graduate programs were authorized.

Primarily a college for women, Longwood now offers eight baccalaureate degrees and two master's degrees.

LOCATION

The College is located in Farmville, a Southside Virginia community, with a population of 5,000. The town is the business and educational center of this area of Virginia. Located here are churches, hotels, and the modern Southside Community Hospital. HampdenSydney College, a liberal arts college for men, is within five miles of Farmville.

Farmville is fifty miles east of Lynchburg and approximately sixty-five miles west of Richmond and Petersburg. It is situated on the Norfolk and Western Railroad. Serving it also are the Grey-

hound and Trailways bus systems. Excellent highways, including U. S. 15 and U. S. 460, intersect here.

The climate is pleasant the year around. The geographic location of the College assures the absence of extremes in temperature and weather.

THE CAMPUS

The campus is on a 20 acre plot of ground to the west of the business section of Farmville. The campus is compact; the buildings are arranged for usefulness and convenience. Ruffner Hall is located in the center of the campus and is probably the first building the student will enter upon her arrival at Longwood College.

26 BULLETIN OF

who wishes to be considered under the Early Decision Plan must apply by October 1 of the senior year and her school must certify that she has filed only one application. A student interested in Early Decision should communicate with the Director of Admissions. Decisions will be based on the applicant's three-year high school record, the school's recommendation, and the Scholastic Aptitude Test of the College Entrance Examination Board taken in the preceding May or August. Decisions of the Committee will be reported to Early Decision applicants in the first half of December.

GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING

The College recognizes that the acqumng of knowledge is only one phase of the student's education. It must also assist each student to develop in all areas of her life. It must be prepared to assist her in making plans for the future and in solving problems of the present. It must be interested in her as a person as well as a member of a class group. Therefore, every faculty member has guidance responsibilities involving work with students on a personal basis. A Student Counselor is available to provide counseling in the areas of vocational and personal adjustment for those students who request it.

The work of the Home Department, directed by the Dean of Women, is likewise an integral part of the student personnel program. This department is responsible for student life in the dormitories and for the social activities of the students. It has intimate daily contact with all students and is in a position to assist them at all times with their social adjustment. Its work is coordinated with that of the faculty so that there is continuity and purpose in the personal assistance rendered to students throughout their college careers.

The Student Health Service, directed by the College Physician, cooperates in every way with other activities of the student personnel program. The physical condition of each student is a primary factor in her adjustment while in college and the cooperation of the Health Service, the faculty, and administrative officials, is considered essential.

Each student's contact with the student personnel program begins with the consideration of her qualifications by the Committee on Admissions when she applies for admission. At the time that she is accepted, the College already has a knowledge of her background, achievement, abilities, and interests. Upon her matriculation at the College, each freshman is assigned an adviser who is likewise her instructor in at least one class. This faculty member is available at all

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 27

times to give her assistance in making her plans and solving her problems in an intelligent manner. The College maintains extensive personnel records on each student . .

The College recognizes that many students have not decided definitely on a specific course of study or vocation at the time that they enter as freshmen. Therefore, they are not required to make a choice at the time that they begin their studies. All freshmen take a common core of general courses. The required subjects in this are English, history or geography, a science, and physical education. In addition, they elect courses in other subjects in which they are interested. This gives them an opportunity to "explore" during their freshman year · in such a way that they are better prepared to make definite choices as to what they will study throughout the remainder of their college career.

The first week of each regular session is known as "Orientation Week" for freshmen and other new students. The administrative officials of the College, in cooperation with the members of the Y. W. C. A. and carefully selected students who serve as orientation leaders, conduct a program of study and activities which acquaints the new students with the customs, traditions, and regulations of the College. This program has proved to be exceedingly valuable to new students as they adjust to the life on the campus. Throughout the country, the College is known for the sincere interest shown by the student body, faculty, and administrative officials in those beginning their study here.

HEALTH SERVICE

The Student Health Service of the College upholds the highest standards of physical and mental health and emphasizes the prevention of illness. An excellent health record has been maintained here because of the close cooperation between the College Physician and other departments that are in a position to assist in the promotion of student health.

The Service is staffed by the College Physician who is a member of the College staff. He is assisted by three registered nurses.

Students needing medical attention are treated in the modern, well equipped infirmary maintained by the College. The infirmary gives a twenty-four hour service with a nurse available at all times. The College Physician is available on call at any hour. T~e College does not assume responsibility for any medical attention except that

given by the College Physician and by the nurses. Consultants, hospitalization, private nurses, special prescriptions, X-rays, other laboratory work, etc., are at the expense of the student. The College Physician communicates with the parents immediately in case of serious illness.

The Southside Community Hospital is located only a few blocks from the College. It is well equipped and is in the charge of a capable staff of physicians and surgeons. The College Physician is a member of the staff, and a Diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine.

LIBRARY SERVICE

A library orientation program, required of all freshmen, is given by members of the English department in cooperation with the library staff. By means of this program students become familiar with the library building and its functional divisions, with the various book collections, and with general and special reference tools. They learn how to borrow library materials, how to use the Faculty Reserve Collection, and how to locate subject material or speci£c books. This program is followed by individual and group instruction throughout the entire four years of college.

Library service to alumnae is rendered locally or by mail. Loan service to teachers in Southside Virginia is formally organized according to the regionii.l plan put into effect by the State Board of Education. It is the aim of the library to obtain maximum use of its materials by students, alumnae, teachers and other friends of the College.

PLACEMENT SERVICE

To assist students and a lumnae in securing desirable pos1t1ons, the College maintains a Placement Bureau in the office of the Director of Admissions. Available to alumnae and students, and provided without cost either to students or employers, the Bureau places prospective teachers and graduates who wish to secure positions in business and industry.

A folder of information is compiled for each graduate and is available to prospective employers. School superintendents, personnel directors, and others interested in employing graduates are invited to visit the college for interviews with students.

Student Life on the Campus

PHASES OF COLLEGE LIFE

The faculty and administrative officials of the College believe that their primary responsibility is to assist students to be welladjusted, useful citizens in the state and nation. Therefore, attention is given to all aspects of student life on the campus.

In the section of this catalogue describing the Student Health Service, the College's activities relating to physical life are outlined. Summarized below are other aspects of college life which receive careful attention.

MORAL AND RELIGIOUS LIFE

The moral and religious aspects of education are considered as important as are the physical and intellectual. During the history of the College a tradition of good will, cooperation, and high standards of personal relationship has developed. Such a stabilizing influence cannot be described; it can be appreciated only through living in the

; _ ::w:: ~~~ -~~~=-i) ;\ ://;~~""' i,t;".;'t\}> ., . '" fitl[iI~: .•·: •. } l

atmosphere it engenders. But this intangible influence is experienced by both students and faculty to such a degree that it has become a distinct moral force in the whole College community.

The College is a home in which everyone is expected to do his part and share in a give-and-take relationship with others. Certain modes of life are prized and valued because in a long history they have proved their worth. In such an atmosphere it is difficult for the young student to fail to develop high ideals and a wholesome moral outlook on life.

The Young Women's Christian Association is a strong religious force in the college. It provides training and experience for the officers and others interested in religious work. The Y. W. C. A. conducts daily evening prayer services, urges attendance at church school and church, and fosters a spirit of religious life and service. Under its auspices a Religious Emphasis Week is observed; a series of addresses by some Christian leader is given each year on the fundamental principles of the Christian religion, and noted speakers representing the international point of view address the students on important current movements.

Students are also encouraged to participate in the religious life of the community. They receive a cordial welcome from the ministers of the town to participate in their church life, which includes regular Sunday services, prayer meetings, Sunday School classes, and social gatherings. Special leaders, working with students through the medium of student organizations, are provided by many of the churches.

Farmville churches include the Baptist, Episcopal, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, and Wesleyan Methodist. Where there is no organized church leadership, as in the case of the Christian Scientists, students of the respective faiths usually have contact with local residents having similar church affiliations.

CULTURAL, SOCIAL AND RECREATIONAL LIFE

The individual with a well-rounded personality is social in outlook and attitude. She is able to work and to play with other people . The community life on the campus provides many opportunities for every student to participate in various social, recreational, and cultural activities.

Various receptions and parties at the beginning of the college year enable new students to meet the upper classmen, faculty member-

32 BULLETIN OF

ben, and administrative officials. The College Circus, presented each fall by the four classes, provides entertainment and develops a spirit of cooperation and friendliness among the students. The Founders Day celebration, held yearly in March, brings together alumnae, students, and faculty members. The May Day Festival, held at the Longwood Estate on the first Saturday in May, is an outstanding event sponsored by a general committee chosen from the student body.

Numerous dances and productions are presented during the year by the classes and student organizations. Picnic:s and hikes are held during the fall and spring months. Intramural and varsity competition in various sports, including archery, basketball, golf, hockey, swimming, softball, tennis, and volleyball, provide opportunities for participation on the part of all students.

The College's choir, band, orchestra, Madrigal Singers, and chorus are open to students interested in music. The Longwood Players provides excellent experience for students interested in dramatics. Radio and television programs are presented on the local stations by various student and faculty groups. The College's weekly newspaper, literary magazine, and yearbook are prepared and edited by students interested in writing and editorial work.

A weekly assembly is attended by all students. Distinguished speakers and other programs of interest are presented. Artist series, programs featuring outstanding lecturers and various artists of the entertainment world are presented at intervals during the year. Among the outstanding speakers, artists, and programs presented on the Longwood campus during the 1961-62 session were the following: Dr. Harlow Shapley, Danforth Scholar; Dr. Mortimer Caplin, Commissioner of Internal Revenue; Columbus Boychoir; Cello Concert by Henri Honegger; Fall Play, "The Honorable Crichton", by Sir James Barrie; "Richard III", presented by Players Incorporated; Folk Song Recital by Richard Dyer-Bennett; Theodore Ullman, Pianist; Dr. Stanley Kunitz, Danforth Scholar.

INSTITUTE OF SOUTHERN CULTURE

The Institute of Southern Culture was established at Longwood College in 1956 to promote the study of traditional aspects of Southern civilization through academic course work, special lectures, and through the publication of research in the field. The Institute is currently sponsoring two series of lectures in the spring and summer by visiting scholars and members of the faculty. Course work in several de-

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 33

partments of the College also provides a means for exchange of ideas about various aspects of Southern life. Financial support for the Institute is provided by the Longwood College Alumnae Association.

ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL LIFE

The academic and professional life of the College constitutes the main emphasis to which all other activities are secondary and contributory. It centers around the courses of instruction offered in the various departments of the College. Some courses are primarily cultural, liberal, and broadening in outlook. Others are primarily professional and are designed to prepare students definitely for teaching in the elementary and secondary schools of the State or for other vocations. In still others academic scholarship and the professional spirit are very closely combined.

SOCIAL REGULATIONS

The College is a community, the residents of which are the students, faculty members, and administrative officials. These persons work together to maintain high standards of conduct and, like all other communities, have developed regulations by which the social life of its members is governed.

Students are expected to conduct themselves as ladies and gentlemen while on the campus, in the community, and at other colleges. They must keep in mind at all times that they are representatives of the College and that their conduct brings credit or discredit to the College as well as to themselves. Any questionable conduct will be dealt with at the discretion of the Student Government Association.

Boarding students are not permitted to keep cars on the campus or in Farmville during the College session. Seniors may have cars at the College during the commencement period which is approximately two months preceding the date of graduation.

Complete information regarding all social regulations is given in the Student Handbook sent to every student during the summer preceding the opening of the new session.

ORGANIZATIONS

Numerous student groups on the campus assure a well-rounded program of activity for each student as well as the opportunity for student participation in the affairs of the College.

34 BULLETIN OF

STUDENT

GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION

All students of the College are members of the Student Government Association which is directed by a Student Council composed of officers and members elected by the student body. This group manages the affairs of the students in cooperation with the administrative officials of the College. Regulations governing the conduct of students both on and off the campus are enacted and enforced by them.

The underlying principles of conduct and relationship of the students, faculty members and administrative officials are embodied in the honor system, a cherished tradition of the Co lleg e. The way of life on the campus is based on the Honor Code.

The Honor Code

A high sense of honor, in all his relationships and actir,i ties, should be one of a person's most cherished possessions. It is the one essential that enables a person to respect himself, and to merit the respect of others. It is the one thing that makes it possible for a group of people to lir,e together with perfect confidence. Such an effectir,e honor system is one of the oldest and highest traditions of Longwood College.

Upon entrance here a student is assumed to be a person of absolute honor until he pror,es himself otherwise. This means absolute honor in all academic work, financial and property matters, and personal relationships, whether superoised or not. It cannot be or,er-emphasized that this places upon each indifJidual student the obligation of constant r,igilance to maintain absolutely honorable conduct.

The Honor Code requires a student to remain not only honorable in his own conduct but also to report all infractions of the honor system he obseroes. This latter is in many respects the most difficult phase of the system. The measure of a student's lor,e of the system and of his College, ner,ertheless, is the extent to which he is willing to shoulder this burden.

When a possible infraction of the honor system is reported to the Student Council, a careful and secret trial is conducted. The accused will be given every opportunity of proving his innocence. If the r,erdict is innocent, the minutes of tlze trial will be destroyed but if the r,erdict is guilty the decision will be announced to the student body.

HOUSE COUNCIL

The House Council of the College is composed of four studentelected officers and of the students who are appointed presidents of

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 35

the various halls of the dormitories by the President of the Council. It is the responsibility of this group to set up and enforce the regulations governing student life in the dormitories as residences.

YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION

The Y. W. C. A. in the College is a branch of the national Y. W. C. A. The administrative direction is in the hands of the students, assisted by an advisory committee of the faculty. It promotes a number of religious activities. Leaders are brought to the campus by the Association to discuss with students questions of religious interest and to help individuals with personal religious problems. Vesper services are held each evening in one of the nearby churches. The organization through its committees welcomes new students individually and sponsors a reception to freshmen early in the fall. It likewise provides informal entertainment for other groups of students from time to time during the year.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION

All students are members of the Athletic Association. The Athletic Council, consisting of elected students and a faculty adviser, has control of both intramural and inter-collegiate sports and contests, and attends to all the business of the organization. Contests are held in tenn is, basketball, softball, hockey, volleyball, and golf. The ninehole course at Longwood gives students an opportunity to play golf. In collegiate sports, teams are maintained in tennis, basketball, hockey, and swimming.

HONOR SOCIETIES

There are a number of honor societies designed to recognize excellence in various fields. Alpha Kappa Gamma, a national honor society for leadership, was organized in 1928 with the Longwood chapter as one of its charter members. Kappa Delta Pi is a national honor society for students interested in the activities of the teaching profession. Its membership is limited to juniors and seniors whose scholastic records place them in the upper fifth of the student body.

The Colonnade is a literary magazine to which students contribute essays, poetry, short stories, and other writings. It sponsors contests, from time to time, to stimulate literary effort.

The Yirginian is the yearbook of the College. Students are responsible for the art work, the editing, and the management of the publication. Each issue represents a cross section of the College life for the year. It is, therefore, highly valued by the members of the graduating class.

The Student Handbook is the manual of rules and regulations governing the conduct of the students. In addition, it contains the constitutions and by-laws of the Student Government Association, the Young Women's Christian Association, and the Athletic Association, briefer descriptions of other organizations, and a description of the customs and traditions of the College. It serves as the orientation textbook for all new students.

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 49

Academic Regulations

Summarized in thi& section are important regulations related to academic work in the College. Students should be familiar with these as they undert<J.ke their studies in this institution.

COURSE NUMBERS

The courses listed in this catalogue that are numbered between 100 and 199 are designed primarily for first-year students; those between 200 and 299 are for second-year students; those between 300 and 399 are for third-year students; and those between 400 and 499 are for fourth-year students. Undergraduate Honors Courses are numbered 500. Courses numbered from 501 to 599 are for graduate students and advanced undergraduates. Numbers from 600 to 699 are for graduate students only.

At least 44 of the 126 credits required for graduation must be in courses with numbers of 300 or above.

CREDITS

The college is organized on the semester plan. The credit hour, abbreviated as "credit", is the semester hour. For example, a class meeting three fifty-minute periods a week for one semester gives three credits.

STUDENT LOAD

The average schedule of a student during a semester includes classes giving from fifteen through eighteen credits. Boarding and regular students are required to carry a load of work giving a minimum of twelve credits. A student may carry as much as eighteen credits without special permission . A schedule beyond that amount requires special permission from the Dean. Such permission is rarely granted to a student whose academic average for the preceding semester is less than "B".

COURSE CHANGES

All changes made by students in their class schedules after registration must be approved by the Dean.

No student is permitted to enroll in a course for credit later than two weeks after classes begin in any semester. The exact date will be announced at the beginning of each semester. Any student who withdraws from or "drops" a course after four weeks fr.)m the date that classes begin in any semester will receive a grade of "F" in the course unless the withdrawal is due to advice of the College Physician or the student withdraws from college.

No credit is allowed for any course taken for which the student has not registered and which is not listed on the approved schedule card filed in the Registrar's office.

ADJUSTMENTS IN CURRICULUM REQUIREMENTS

The College recognizes that the prior achievement of the students whom it admits varies greatly in the subject matter fields. For example some are much more proficient in a subject such as English

52 BULLETIN OF

grammar than are others. As a result, any requirement that all students must enroll in identical basic courses in the freshman or later years usually results in heterogeneous classes in which the wellprepared student is not challenged or the student with the usual preparation is confronted with exceedingly difficult tasks.

Because of these differences in prior achievement, the College offers every student an opportunity to demonstrate her achievement in a required subject prior to enrolling in it. This may be done by the use of an oral or written examination, or a conference, at the discretion of the faculty member involved. At times, this evaluation may be made after the student has been enrolled in a course for one semester. Unusual proficiency demonstrated in the first semester of a two-semester course may indicate that the student should not continue in the same course but enroll in one of a more advanced nature.

In any case wherein the student is found to have a satisfactory knowledge of a subject prior to enrolling in it, or after completing a part of her study in it, the chairman of the department in which the subject is taught will notify the Registrar. In such a notification, he will state that the student is excused from taking the subject and will indicate the subject or course that may be taken in its stead. This may be an advanced course in the same subject or an elective course in any field, chosen with the advice of the chairman.

As the above indicates, the student is not granted college credit for prior achievement. However, recognition of such achievement enables her to plan a program of study that is challenging and in accord with her needs.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT

Longwood College offers advanced standing to superior students in the fields of English composition, literature, European history, American history, French, Spanish, biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Advanced Placement examinations, with the exception of music, are given by the COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAM I NATION BOARD. It should be noted that these are different from the usual College entrance examinations given by the same Board. This Board makes available each year in May, and at regular examination centers, advanced placement examinations in the several fields. Any student whose performance on these tests is satisfactory will be allowed to skip the beginning course in the particular field and obtain the semester hours of credit which that course carries toward the

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 53

bachelor's degree. For example, if the student takes the advanced placement examination in American history and makes a satisfactory score, that student will not be required to take the beginning course in American history, and he will be granted six semester hours of credit toward his degree on the basis of the examination. The examinations are administered by the Educational Testing Service. Detailed information on testing dates, examination centers, and all other matters relating to the administration of the examinations, is available without cost in the bulletin of information entitled "Advanced Placement Examinations". This bulletin may be obtained by writing to: College Board Advanced Placement Examinations, Box 592, Princeton, New Jersey.

Examinations for advanced standing in music are administered by the Longwood College music faculty by appointment. Requests for such examinations in music should be filed with the Chairman of the Music Department, Longwood College, Farmville, Virginia.

SUMMER READING

It is possible to earn a maximum of two semester hour credits, per summer, by directed reading in a specific field. Interested students should arrange this with the chairman of the department in which their major lies.

CLASS ATTENDANCE

Students are required to attend the classes in which they are enrolled. Absences are permitted if the student is ill, if there is an emergency in the student's family, or under the following conditions:

1. A student whose name appears on the Dean's List for the preceding semester is entitled to be absent from classes on any day that she can use her time in ways that seem to her more profitable.

2. A student with a "B" average for the preceding semester and who received no grade of "F" is entitled to three absences from each class during a semester.

3. A student with a "C" average for the preceding semester and who received no grade of "F" is entitled to two absences from each class during a semester. (Freshmen and transfer students are assumed to have averages of "C" during the first semester of their enrollment.)

54 BULLETIN OF

4. A student with less than a "C" average for the preceding semester is entitled to one absence from each class during the semester.

No credit will be given for any course in which a student fails to attend at least two-thirds of the class meetings, even though her absences are due to illness or emergency.

Full information regarding class attendance and absences is given in The Student Handbook sent to every student during the summer months.

GRADES

The achievement of a student in a course is indicated by the grade that she receives. The significance of these marks is indicated below:

A: Superior or excellent college work

B: Above average college work

C: Average college work

D: Below average but passing college work

F: Failure

I: This grade indicates that because of illness or for other good reasons the work of the semester has not been completed. When this work has been completed acceptably, a final grade will be reported. A grade of "I" will become "WP" or "WF" unless removed within one year.

WP: This symbol indicates that a student withdrew from a course but was passing the work at the time that she withdrew. It is used in cases of students dropping courses after the fourweek period at the beginning of a semester for medical reasons and those who withdraw from the College prior to the end of a semester.

WF: This symbol indicates that a student withdrew from a course and was failing the work in it at the time that she withdrew. It is used in cases of students dropping courses after the four-week period at the beginning of a semester and those who withdraw from the College prior to the end of a semester.

The lowest passing grade is "D". However, for a degree or a certificate a student must earn a general average of "C" (a quality point average of 1.00, 2.00) on all of her college work. Also she must have a general average of "C" in those courses constituting her major

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 55

subject or field. At times, it is necessary for a student to repeat certain courses or enroll in additional courses in order to raise her averages to these requirements.

At the end of the first half of each semester of the regular session, mid-semester grade estimates are issued to the students and their parents or guardians. These are not official grades. Instead, they represent the instructors' estimates of the students' progress up to that point. At the end of each semester, reports are issued to students and their parents or guardians showing their final grade in each course in which they are enrolled.

QUALITY CREDITS

The quality of work completed by a student is recognized by the assignment of points to various grades. For some years Longwood College has used the "Three Point" system. By a faculty decision of December 7, 1961, a change will be made gradually to the "Four Point" system. The old system remains in effect for all students already in college; the new system goes into effect for all students entering in September, 1962, and thereafter.

The Three Point System

For each credit of: A grade-3 B grade-2 C grade-I D grade---0 F grade--0

The Four Point System

For each credit of: A grade-4 B grade-3 C grade-2 D grade-I F grade-0

Furthermore, under the new "Four Point" system, all D grades and F grades made on courses, wherever taken, will be permanently retained in computing a student's quality point average.*

On the basis of this point system, a student's quality point average may be computed by dividing the number of quality points that she has earned by the total number of credits assigned to the courses in which she has been enrolled.

SCHOLASTIC ACHIEVEMENT NECESSARY TO REMAIN IN COLLEGE

Academic probation is a state of warning and indicates that the student's academic work is not satisfactory. If the average of a stu-

•The gradual application of the new "Four Point" system necessitates noting for the time bein~ two quality point averages wherever these averages are stated. The first will be on the baais of the "Tbree Point ' syatem, tho aecond will be on the basis or the "Fo\U" Point" syste111.

56 BULLETIN OF

dent is not satisfactory during the first semester, she will be placed on academic probation for the second semester.

The minimum academic requirements are as follows: Freshmen entering in 1962, 1.50 (four point system) first semester; 1.60 (four point system) second semester. Sophomores and juniors 1962-63 and juniors 1963-64, 1.00 (three point system).

STUDENT TEACHING

All students enrolled in curricula leading to degrees in education undertake supervised teaching during their senior year. Each student is assigned to work with a regular teacher in a public school located off the campus. The student teaching period consists of a concentrated eight-week block of full-time teaching and observation. This involves a minimum of 175 clock hours of directed teaching and 25 hours of directed observation. Six semester hours of credit are earned in student teaching for the eight-week period.

Prerequisites. Students must meet the following prerequisites for enrollment in Education 300 or Education 400 for student teaching:

1. They must have completed Psychology 251, 256 and Education 352.

2. They must have completed at least twelve semester hours in appropriate courses in the subject matter fields in which they plan to undertake their student teaching.

3. They must have a cumulative academic average of at least "C" on all college work. Those planning to engage in supervised teaching in the high school must also have an average of at least "C" in the field in which they will teach.

Virginia Certification Requirements. Students seeking certification at a particular level must satisfy the following requirements of the State Board of Education in Virginia:

"When a student seeks endorsement to teach in nursery school, kindergarten, or grades one through three, some of the student teaching shall be in these grades. '\Vhen the student seeks endorsement to teach in grades four through seven, the student teaching may be done on any grade level in grades one through seven. Student teaching in any one or more of the grades four through seven will be accepted as satisfying the student teaching require-

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 57

ment for high school endorsement in lieu of student teaching in the high school."

ACADEMIC HONORS

The College recognizes superior scholarship through its Dean's List and the announcement of an honor list at each commencement.

The Dean's List is published at the end of each semester. Students whose names appear on it are those who have earned an academic average of B+ (a quality point average of 2.50, 3.50 or above) on the work taken in the semester with no grade below "C". Special privileges are granted these students. (See the section on "Class Attendance".) A student's name may be removed from the list at the middle of the semester if her mid-semester grade estimates do not meet the required standard.

Those students whose general averages for four years of study are above B+ (a quality point average of 2.35, 3.35 or above) are graduated "With Honor''.

EXAMINATIONS

Written examinations are given during a designated period at the end of each semester and summer session to every student enrolled in each course in the College. These are each three hours in length.

Deferred examinations for the first semester must be taken within thirty days after the beginning of the second semester. Those deferred from the second semester must be taken during the summer session or during the last two days preceding the date set for the return of upperclassmen to the College in September. Those deferred from the summer session must be removed during the same two days. (See page 44 for fees.)

Re-examinations are not permitted for freshmen, sophomores, or juniors. A senior student is permitted one re-examination during her senior year. This may be in either the first or second semester.

REPETITION OF COURSES

Students may repeat courses in which they have unsatisfactory grades in an effort to raise such grades. However, when this is done

58 BULLETIN OF

the grade earned when the course is repeated will also be the one utilized by the College in computing the student's average, or in evaluating her record for the purposes of graduation even if the grade is lower than the one received when the student enrolled in the course for the first time.

TRANSFER OF CREDITS

The College accepts, on transfer, credits of acceptable grade earned in other accredited colleges and universities provided such credits may be applied toward the requirements for a degree in this institution. Credits of a grade quality of below "C'' are not accepted on transfer unless there is definite evidence that the student has attained a greater mastery of the subject than the grade indicates

The scholastic indices of transfer students are computed twice. One index includes only the work taken at Longwood College; the other includes all work taken at Longwood College and elsewhere (including D's and F's which are not transferable). The lower of the two is considered the official scholastic index for purposes of the award of academic honors and election to honor societies. This regulation applies also to regularly enrolled students who may take extension, correspondence, or summer session work in another institution.*

Not more than fourteen semester hours of correspondence course credit and not more than thirty semester hours of extension class and correspondence study combined may be credited toward a degree. The College does not accept, on transfer, credits earned through correspondence courses in the natural and physical sciences and certain other subjects. Students must obtain approval to include in their degree program correspondence and extension courses prior to enrolling in them. Otherwise, the College can assume no responsibility for accepting such credits on transfer.

The College cannot grant a student permission to enroll in a correspondence or extension course until after the student has attended this institution for at least one full summer session or a semester of the regular session.

CHANGES IN REQUIREMENTS

Progressive development in the College forces frequent rev1s10n of curricula. In every new catalogue some improvements are indicated. When no hardship is imposed on the student because of changes, and when the facilities of the College permit, the student is expected to meet the requirements of the latest catalogue. In this way, the student may realize the benefits of improvements in her curriculum that she would be unable to realize were she to follow the curriculum tabulated in the catalogue at the time that she entered the College.

Students returning to the College after an interruption of four or more years of their college study are required to conform to the requirements of the latest catalogue.

THE FRESHMAN YEAR

As indicated in the curricula outlined in this catalogue all freshmen enroll in a program of study which is essentially the same re-

60 BULLETIN OF

gardless of the curricula in which they plan to major or specialize. During the first year, the student studies English; history or geography; a science; physical education, and two courses selected on the basis of her tentative plans for the future. Suggestions are made in the outline of each curriculum regarding these elective courses. A definite choice of a curriculum and major is not made until the beginning of the sophomore year. Thus, the student who is uncertain as to her choice of a major or a curriculum may explore the opportunities available to her. The College offers assistance to her in making such a choice. See the section of this catalogue entitled "Student Personnel Program".

The Graduate Program

THE DEGREES OF MASTER OF ARTS IN EDUCATION AND MASTER OF SCIENCE IN EDUCATION

The program of graduate studies at Longwood College provides opportunity for broad training on the part of public school teachers and other qualified persons. The program is open to graduates of recognized colleges or universities. Those who are able to qualify and who complete all of the requirements may earn either the Master of Arts degree in Education or the Master of Science degree in Education. Graduate courses are available during the regular academic year-on a part-time basis (evenings and Saturday;:mornings)-as well as on a full-time basis in the Summer Session. 'i,The policy of Longwood College does not permit the awarding of graduate degrees to its_ fac1;1lty ~embers, with academic rank _abo-ye Instructors.

Admission to Graduate Study

A student who holds the baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution may apply for admission to graduate study. For this purpose he should obtain from the Dean of the College an admissions form. The applicant should have official transcripts of all undergraduate and graduate work taken at other institutions sent to the Dean at least one month prior to the opening of the session. All documents become the property of Longwood College. A student may enroll in graduate courses without becoming a candidate for a degree.

Admission to graduate courses will be granted to persons who meet the following qualifications:

1. United States citizenship, or, in the case of foreign students, possession of an appropriate Department of State study permit.

2. The Bachelor's degree from a college or university accredited by the National Council of Accreditation of Teacher Education, the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, or other regional agency.

3. An academic aptitude for graduate work, which will be determined principally from the applicant's undergraduate record.

Conditional Admission

The following applicants may be admitted conditionally:

a. Applicants for whom all of the necessary entrance information has not yet been received and approved by the Graduate Council.

b. Students whose undergraduate records are not entirely satisfactory or who show minor deficiencies in their major fields.

c. Capable students who lack not more than five semester hours to complete their undergraduate program at Longwood College.

cl. Mature persons who have special or personal interest not covered by the above.

The conditional status, however, should be regarded as temporary, and the students should seek to remove all conditions as soon as possible .

Admission to the Departments

The special requirements of the several College departments

74 BULLETIN OF

are designed to insure that the student is able to take advantage of the opportunities provided for advanced study. These requirements relate as a rule to the completion of certain undergraduate "prerequisites" but may include satisfactory performance on aptitude or achievement tests. Details will be furnished by the department.

After admission to graduate study a student should seek an early conference with the chairman of the department in which he plans to specialize. On the basis of this conference, the department chairman will aid the student in selecting his advisory committee which will assist the student in planning his program and be available whenever counsel is desired. If the student is uncertain as to the area in which he wishes to specialize, he should confer with a member of the Graduate Council. ·

Admission to Candidacy

A student is considered ready to seek admission to candidacy for a Master's degree when he has:

a. Demonstrated his aptitude to undertake graduate work for at least one summer term or one semester at the graduate level.

b. Removed any conditions attendant upon his admission to the Graduate Program and removed any deficiencies in prerequisites established by his department.

c. Formulated a program of study approved by the student's advisory committee.

d. Satisfied other requirements of the College.

Requirements for a Degree

A satisfactory graduate program represents more than a series of courses or an accumulation of credits, imporLnt as these may be. The additional and indispensable element prerequisite to receiving the Master's degree consists of the development of some special competence by the student, together with the satisfactory completion of an approved program of study in which he has displayed a degree of mastery in his field of specialization. A candidate for a degree may either:

A. Complete 24 semester hours of credit and a thesis, or

B. Complete 30 semester hours of credit without a thesis.

In plan "A," the thesis is approved by major and minor pro-

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 75

fessors as well as by the student's advisory committee, and two typewritten copies of the thesis are presented to the Graduate Council at least four weeks before the degree is to be conferred.

At the time the graduate degree is awarded, the student must either hold or be eligibl ., for the Collegiate Professional certificate, issued by the Virginia State Board of Education.

Selection of Major and Minor

The number of departments prepared to offer a graduate major, will be expanded as rapidly as possible. For the present, courses leading to the degree of Master of Arts in Education may be taken when the major is chosen from one of the following fields:

Education English History

For the degree of Master of Science in Education, the corresponding choice may be made from the following departments: Biology

A major in any subject consists of 18 semester hours of work, or 12 hours of course work plus a thesis. Either the major or the minor must be in the field of education. Furthermore, in order to insure the breadth of training necessary for a teacher, a student may not elect more than 18 semester hours in his major subject.

Nine semester hours in a field constitute a minor in that field. The additional course may be elected from any other subject of the student's choice.

However, if the candidate is a teacher in an elementary school or if he is preparing to teach in the elementary grades, he will be permitted to elect two minors, of 6 semester hours each instead of a single minor of 9 hours. In this case where education is not the major, it must be one of the two minors. The departments or fields in which a candidate may minor are the following: art, biology, business education, chemistry and physics, education, English, geology and geography, history, home economics, mathematics, music, physical education, and psychology.

Students interested in commencing work in any of the foregoing fields should confer with the head of the department concerned.

Comprehensive Examination

Students expecting to graduate in June who do not submit a thesis take an essay type written examination, not to exceed 3 hours' duration, covering the student's major field of study. This examination is designed to evaluate competency in written expression, ability to reason within an area, and the ability to apply information. This examination will be administered by the Graduate Council the first Saturday in May, 9:00 a.m.

A student electing to do a thesis (Plan A) is, in general, exempted from taking the comprehensive written examination. An oral examination, not to exceed one hour's duration, is required as a defense of the thesis. The Graduate Council may require a written comprehensive examination if it is recommended by the Head of the Department of the student's major field.

Thesis

The student electing to write a thesis selects the subject for the thesis in collaboration with the adviser as soon as possible after commencing the graduate program. (See paragraph on Student Load.)

The finished thesis must be approved by both the major and minor professors and the student's advisory committee. Two typewritten copies are to be presented to the Graduate Council at least four weeks before the degree is to be conferred.

Two copies of each thesis are presented )y the candidate to the College, to be deposited in the College library, one for archival purposes, the other to be circulated to students and faculty and to offcampus persons through inter-library loans.

The candidate for the graduate degree pays the binding fee for the two copies of the thesis in the Business Office at the time the diploma fee is paid. Arrangements for these bindings are made by the Librarian.

Residence

Normal residence requirements of one academic year or its equivalent may be reduced by extension and transfer to a minimum of eighteen semester hours.

Students with undergraduate deficiencies may find it necessary to take more than the normal time to complete requirements.

LONGWOOD COLLEGE 77

Credit by Transfer

Transfer of credit from another institution 1s permitted up to 6 credit hours.

Credit by Extension

Beginning with the fall semester of 1962, by arrangement with the University of Virginia Extension Division, Longwood College will offer graduate courses by extension. The number and location of these courses will be determined by demand. Six semester hours will be the maximum an individual student may offer in fulfillment of his degree requirement.

Course Numbers

Graduate courses are of two categories: 500-courses are for Graduates and Advanced Undergraduates while 600-courses are for Graduates only. At least 40 per cent of a student's total program must consist of 600-courses.

Student Load

Fifteen credit hours per semester constitute a normal load during the academic year. For permission to carry more than this the student may petition the Graduate Council. If the student is already employed, the normal load is 3 semester hours; permission to carry more than 3 semester hours during one semester must therefore be obtained from the Graduate Council.

Time Limit

The work for a graduate degree is to be completed within seven years after commencing such work. An extension of this time-limit is permissible only upon the consent in writing of the Graduate Council.

Graduation

A student planning to graduate on a certain date should file with the Dean of the College an application for a graduate degree at least 60 days before the degree is to be conferred.

Departments of Instruction

Instruction in the College is offered by the departments described in this section of the catalogue. Included in the description of each department are the requirements for a major therein and the courses which it offers.

Numerous courses in most departments have prerequisites. These will be noted in the descriptions of the courses. Generally, courses numbered between 100 and 199 are for freshmen. Those numbered between 200 and 299 are for sophomores; those between 300 and 399 are for juniors; and those 400 and above are for seniors. Undergraduate Honors Courses are numbered 500. Courses numbered from 501 to 599 are for graduate students and advanced undergraduates. Numbers from 601 to 699 are for graduate students only and 600 courses are graduate thesis courses. Courses with numbers divided by commas, such as 111, 112 are semester courses. This means that the College gives credit toward a degree for the satisfactory completion of one semester of the course even though the student may not enroll in it for the second. Courses in which the numbers are hyphenated, such as 111-112 are year courses. In these, the College grants credit toward a degree only upon the successful comp letion of both semesters of work.

Honors Courses

The honors program was inaugurated by the College in 1930. Students in all departments of the College are eligible to participate in this program.

Honors courses are designed for capable students who wish to pursue under individual instruction an intensive study of a subject of their choice, thereby becoming acquainted with methods of research, organization of materials, and the presentation of results in a scholarly manner. Such intensive study is intended also to stimulate initiative, resourcefulness, and original thought ,

Under this plan, the student is directed in creative research by an instructor who has specialized in the field and who acts as her sponsor. Candidates for honors must be enrolled in honors courses for two semesters, not necessarily consecutively. They may withdraw from such courses only with the consent of the Honors Committee.

The subject and plan of the research are decided in conferences between the student and the faculty member sponsoring the program. Students interested in honors courses should submit a brief outline describing their projected research to the chairman of the department in which the work is to be done. The department chairman will present each student's application to the Honors Committee for approval.

The results of a study under this program must be organized into a formal paper. Furthermore, the candidate must stand an oral examination given by an examining board of three members well acquainted with the field. The candidate receives honors in the department sponsoring her only on the recommendation of this examining board. In the event that she fails to be recommended for honors, a grade will be assigned to the work that she has done by her sponsor who will be guided by the caliber of the work.

The program of honors courses is administered by the Hono s Committee which must approve all students enrolled in such courses and must appoint the sponsors and examining boards. Members of this committee are Miss Barksdale, Chairman, Mr. Brumfield, Mr. Gresham, Mrs. Magnifico, Miss Wells.

The class schedules and records of a student enrolled in the honors programs will indicate that she is enrolled in a "500" course giving six semester hours of credit for two semesters of work. (No credit will be given to a student who does not complete both semesters.) If for example, the honors work is being done in the field of mathematics, the student's record will show the following: Mathematics 500, Honors Course in Mathematics, 6 credits.

Candidates for honors in a department are eligible also for general honors awarded by the College for outstanding academic records.

Longwood College Alumnae Association

The Alumnae Association serves both the College and its former students. It keeps the alumnae informed of the activities of the College and keeps the College informed as to the problems and needs of the alumnae. The Association is a kind of clearing house through which the alumnae and the College can work together to their mutual benefit. It also serves to keep former students of the College interested in one another by organizing them into local associations and bringing them back to the College on specia l occasions.

The Association operates in many ways. It keeps a record of former students, holds reunions, aids worthy students through the Fraser Memorial Loan Fund, Cunningham Memorial Loan Fund, J. L. Jarman Loan Fund, Mary White Cox Memorial Loan Fund, and Jennie Masters Tabb Memorial Fund, and organizes local chapters of alumnae in counties and cities. It makes available the College news through The Rotunda, the weekly publication of the College, and the Alumnae Magazine, and brings to the attention of the College the achievements and needs of individual alumnae. It holds an annual meeting at the College on Founders Day in March.
